Xseed has announced that they will be releasing both The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2 to North America and Europe. For those who have never heard of this game, Xseed describes it as follows…

“Taking place on the same continent as fan-favorite Trails in the Sky, Trails of Cold Steel is the first game in the series to tread Erebonian soil and explore the inner political conflicts of this oft-mentioned powerhouse in detail. With a standalone story that also delves into the expansive lore that has become synonymous with the series, players take on the role of military students at a time of great turmoil, enjoying school life and bonding with fellow students to earn new abilities in battle, then utilizing those abilities via speedy, tactical turn-based combat with the newly-developed “ARCUS” system.”

The game will be released on Playstation 3 and PS Vita sometime this Fall.
